Joe,

At this point, I'm not sure if even Intel knows what market the Willamette will infiltrate. Their product roadmap seems to be falling to pieces. Is anyone in charge over there! In the last few weeks, I have become little interested in Willamette. AMD's roadmap seems much more interesting. I'm not sure if they can really sell 50 million processors next year (9 Q1, 11 Q2, 14 Q3, 16 Q4), but the profit at $100+ ASP is mind boggling.

Pravin.

In a significant product realignment, Intel Corp.'s upcoming Willamette microprocessor will now serve both the high-end and midrange PC-market segments, following the cancellation of a program that was to have cast the Pentium III chip in the midtier role, EBN has learned.

Joe and thread,

Does this not indicate that the Willamette is not yielding at speed grades as high as once thought?
